This lavishly illustrated book charts the history of European tractors, from early farming, when the carthorse was being replaced by primitive machinery, through to today's sophisticated tractors that can almost compete with sports cars in terms of looks and performance. It will feature names now long-forgotten, as well as modern makes, and companies better known as car manufacturers such as Citroen, Mercedes-Benz, Ford, Fiat, Renault and Lamborghini.
